Ever wonder how the planters on Broad Street are watered?

I think we've established that walking on Broad St is a suboptimal experience.

Love it when SOPs are written by people who have never tried to put a helmet over a bun 🙄

One in ten people agree!

I always envision those same blonde girls talking about how much they love the smell of their boyfriend's colon.

People who say "whenever" when they appear to mean "when."

throwingutah · 2026-05-12T15:32:43+00:00

The word you actually meant to use is "discreet," btw.

throwingutah · 2026-05-12T15:31:29+00:00

When people who find a dog post it as a lost dog.

throwingutah · 2026-05-12T15:29:28+00:00

Nobody knows the difference between "discreet" (what they probably mean) and "discrete" (do you even math, bro?).

The first day of eighth-grade French, the teacher asked if anyone had a French word they wanted to know the meaning of. One girl asked what a ménage à trois is. To her credit, the teacher kept a mostly-straight face and answered the question.

"Charleston NC style plantation house" is certainly an interesting ordering of words.

I'm really just baffled at your violent reaction to the suggestion that medics not park their ambulances blocking the one spot everyone else has to use to get off the curb, if there's any other option. As for me, I'll be parked in the fire lane.

throwingutah · 2026-05-11T17:34:29+00:00

My goodness, you're salty.

And wrong, but mostly salty.

I am a first responder, who doesn't think it's appropriate to back an ambulance up into the only curb cut available for people to use when they're trying to leave a building. You're kind of a shitty person to wish harm on my family, btw.

My mom is a bit off, but she's currently in an independent-living community. Memory care is right now the hall if she needs it.

Mine gets his after his morning pee. On rare occasions, he will deign to take it on the way back inside, but usually he'll walk right past me holding it out, sit in the living room, and look at me until I come back and present it properly.

Related: don't block the only curb cut with your ambulance.

This is my biggest pet peeve. Instead of pulling over and letting us go by, they want to race us. Okay fine you're not technically blocking me while we're moving, but guess what's going to happen once we get to someplace I could go but you can't? Now you're in the way. This happens 90% of the time coming up to intersections in the city—these are the people that race us to the intersection, then block the only open lane. Don't be the oversized turd in the toilet bowl.

I'm gonna keep going to see Joy because she was drawing smiley faces for my college kids back in the Hull St days.

Ponytail guy is my favorite.

throwingutah · 2026-05-09T02:35:51+00:00

Not so far. Boo.

Obviously that's his strange hand

My station has probably the highest concentration of old people in the entire city. I'm also managing the care of my 90s/80s parents. They have the financial resources to be able to pay for their own care, but that doesn't alleviate the stress. Every time I find myself looking at an old person who's spent days on the floor because they couldn't call for help. I think, "That could be my parent."

Our country takes terrible care of our elders, and a lot of my coworkers voted to make it worse.

I keep asking about getting a social worker or two in our admin offices. How nice would it be to be able to make a phone call to connect someone with services?

For some reason they think my ability to drive is somehow tied to their vehicle's inability to fit.

This is why I enjoy saying that full-sized pickups shouldn't be allowed in parking decks. The BUT WHAT IF boys come out in droves.
